Christine de Pizan
Wealth takes no account of kindness, good sense, beauty, or strength, nor is she concerned about valor, goodness, or eminent qualities. To such people she is hardly a friend, and when she is, that situation usually does not last long.
Christine de Pizan, The Book of the Mutability of Fortune (Volume 52)

G.K. Chesterton
There is something sinister about putting a leprechaun in a workhouse. The only solid comfort is that he certainly will not work.
G.K. Chesterton, The Collected Works of G.K. Chesterton Volume 28: The Illustrated London News, 1908-1910
